In cases where operational disputes escalate beyond initial claims, charterers and owners may jointly appoint an independent third-party expert to perform a neutral, fully documented Post-Voyage Analysis. While Prime Navigation Shipping strongly advocates for amicable resolution as the primary goal, we are fully equipped to provide professional support when formal dispute assessments are required.
Despite best efforts, certain disputes involving speed claims, performance warranties, fuel consumption discrepancies, or other contractual disagreements may remain unresolved through direct negotiation. In such cases, the appointment of a qualified, independent bureau offers both parties:
A balanced, neutral assessment
Comprehensive analysis of the voyage data
A technically and legally defensible expert opinion
Post-Voyage Analysis is often invoked when:
It is explicitly included in the charter party or fixture recap as part of dispute resolution clauses
Commercial settlement efforts have failed
The case is heading toward formal arbitration
Original performance evaluation reports
Submitted speed claims and counterclaims
Master’s logbook data
Weather and sea condition reports
Charter party performance clauses and contractual obligations
With Prime Navigation Shipping’s Post-Voyage Analysis Service, you gain an experienced and fully independent partner ready to assist in the most complex disputes — delivering thorough assessments while helping minimize operational distractions, financial exposure, and legal risks.
Independent analysis that protects your interests, when it matters most.
